What visitors say
I couldn’t praise this place enough if I tried! We absolutely love it here. It’s a working farm so if you don’t want dirty trainers in the wet months, make sure you bring your wellies or walking boots. The animals are just great and super friendly. They love a stroke. Make sure you buy lots of food at reception to share with the goats sheep and pigs The indoor play area is a little bit dated but our little one (6 yrs old) LOVES it. And the outdoor play equipment is great too. We always have a bite to eat and the sausages and pork burgers are delicious.

Our 9 year old son lived it. They small goats that follow him all day and really friendly he could stroke without being bitten or hurt. A lot bigger than Wroxham barns and almost 20 pounds cheaper for family. Parking was very close and easy in a field. Lots of shady areas to keep cool and aircon inside. Will be going again.

The place was tidy, clean, and perfect for young kids. The prices are £11 for adults, £10 for above 5s, and under 5s are free, booking online isn't required. We went on a bank holiday Friday and was pleasantly surprised that we weren't over ran by families. It might seem a little on the steeper side but I personally think it was worth it seeing the animals and allowing the kids to run to each open pen with the feed. The larger animals like Cows and Goats are very people friendly. Perfect for prams too. Parking is free.

This is a fantastic place for a good laugh with some animals. The goats are gorgeous and full of joy. There's one llama that is full of sass. The rest are nice, but one of them was well up for a cuddle and mess about. I've added a photo of the llama as this was a highlight for me. The animals inside today were all up for a treat and a selfie. The indoor and outdoor play parks are really good and the cafe was surprisingly good. Full English for £9.50. We didn't e, so I o can't comment on quality, but prices were good.
